Indigenous Summer Scholars and Leadership Camps

Indigenous Programs & Services at UBC Okanagan hosts two summer camps for Indigenous youth:

• Indigenous Summer Scholars Camp: Grades 7 to 9
• Indigenous Summer Leadership Camp: Grades 10 to 12

These integrated programs aim to provide the next generation of Indigenous leaders with opportunities to become part of the university experience. The goal of these camps is to help build the students’ interests in higher education and their ability to act as leaders in their communities and schools. Each of these programs is designed in a holistic way that incorporates physical, mental, social, and cultural programming.
